Love Behind the Facade

Willow could tell that Rias was in disbelief. “You’re really going to come back? You’re also going to meet the man I found for you? What about the boyfriend you love to the core?” Willow said softly, “I don’t like him anymore. I never want to see him again.” Rias was delighted, but after he calmed himself, he noticed that something was wrong, and his voice turned cold. “Did he do something to you?” The harsh words, the intimate videos Andrew had mentioned so casually, and his cold voice immediately rose to Willow’s mind. Her heart ached, but she had to maintain her rationality. Rias had always been protective of her. If he learned the truth, he would surely come straight to Northvalley. She could not let Rias be worried about her anymore. She had to deal with these problems on her own. “He didn’t.” She forced herself to calm down. “Once I’m done with my stuff here, I’ll come back.” After telling her to take care of herself, Rias reluctantly hung up, and Willow went h

Andrew ignored her. He only stared at Willow and spoke very gently. “Be good now. Wait for me in the car. Once I’m done with this, I’ll come to you.” Willow said nothing and let him help her up before she walked to the entrance. Her mind was still blank, and her ears rang. She only recovered slightly from her shock when she was inside the car. Soon, Andrew’s friends walked over. One of them knocked on the window. “Please don’t misunderstand, Willow. Andrew’s family found him a fiancee. He never told you about it because he wanted to take care of the problem himself. He just wasn’t expecting Eve to provoke you like this. He likes you, so he doesn’t want to be together with someone else.” He liked her? She found that hilarious, but she lowered her head with no expression on her face as she sat quietly like a lifeless statue. Soon, Andrew came out of the cafe. Eve ran away while crying, and she looked pathetic. Once he chased his friends away, Andrew got into the c

But Willow did not give Andrew the truth and just humored him. “I was just saying whatever came to my mind to refuse her gift. Don’t read too much into it. No one can really predict what will happen in the future, anyway.” “Everything in the future is predictable with me around.” Andrew clearly did not believe her and wanted to question her further, but Eve interrupted him. “Miss Warma, I heard that you’re a professional dancer. You should go and dance instead of sitting here, then!” Willow shook her head. “I don’t want to dance.” But Eve refused to back down. “Don’t worry, Miss Warma. I’ve already booked the place, and there’s no one else on the dance floor. We’ll dance with you.” Andrew pulled a long face. Clearly, he did not want Willow to go either. He wanted her to explain what she had meant just a moment ago. Yet, right then, his friends started pestering him to persuade Willow to dance. “Andrew, make Willow dance already. We want to see how she looks when she dance

Andrew was stunned for a moment, then he laughed. “That’s it?” He said a series of numbers, and it was Willow’s turn to be shocked. That was her date of birth. “Why did you use my birthday as your password?” she asked in a trembling voice. Andrew kissed her forehead and said gently, “Because I love you.” Willow was taken aback. She did not know whether he was telling the truth. Regardless, she could no longer trust him. Andrew handed his phone to her and said, “Are you asking me for the password to look through my phone? I’m innocent as a newborn baby, so you can check whenever you want.” Willow took his phone and finally smiled. Seeing that, Andrew sighed in relief and hugged her tightly. “You’re finally smiling.” His voice was affectionate. “It’s your birthday in two days, and I’ve prepared a grand surprise for you. That’s why I won’t be able to keep you company all the time over the next few days. Will you be able to stay at home alone?” Willow nodded. Af

At the moment the door opened, Andrew’s eyes lit up in joy, but it was quickly replaced by a cold glare. The one who walked in was not Willow, but Eve. She wore a beautiful gown and had a soft, delicate sort of makeup on. Even so, it could not hide her indignity and anger. Her gaze was immediately fixed on Andrew, and she marched over to him with determination. His heart sank, and his voice was as cold as ice. “Why are you here, and who let you in? I didn’t send you an invitation.” Eve bit her lip, and her voice quivered. “I’m your fiancee, yet you’re celebrating another woman’s birthday! How could I not come?” Andrew’s gaze turned even sharper, and he spoke in a warning tone. “Don’t kick up a fuss here, Eve.” But Eve acted as if she did not hear him. As she scanned every corner of the hall, her voice grew louder. She said, “Look at the hall. These flowers are Juliet roses, and they’re the most expensive roses in the world. You got so many of them here. I’m sure tha
